Believing in God doesn't mean I have to accept everything a human says supposedly in His name. There have been countless "antiChrists" since I became aware of the word. From Kruschev to Chairman Mao. From Jim Jones to Saddam Hussein to George W. Bush.

Weird that such strong support for the Obama = Antichrist idea comes from a strongly Democratic demographic group, Hispanics:

"The big surprise here–the group of voters most likely to think Obama is the Anti-Christ are … Hispanics, who solidly backed Obama in 2008. Only 58 percent of them say, for sure, that their president is not Satan come to wreak havoc here on earth."

Not exactly the type of group you would see screaming and waving signs at a tea-party rally.

How pathetic and desperate will the right go if they're pushing dumbass polls about who thinks President Obama is the antichrist? Anyone that stupid doesn't deserve to be taken seriously.

Well maybe they are BUT! Antichrist or not, there are plenty of people who believe it.

I am blown away by the energy behind these pro-Obama folks. I spent an entire day debating online with a man who, after running out of Obama defense, began to personally attack the Bible, Christians and white people. The anit-Bush hatred has been everywhere and not one person tried to stifle it. Republicans believe in free speech. Now when people gather to make their thoughts and opinions heard on Obama and the direction of our country we are told to "shut up." Or are responded to as "astro-turf" what is it about this man that gets people so overly defensive?

I talked last night for an hour with an old and dear friend. He and I share little in common when it comes to political opinion.

His first sally was, "I think that most of the opposition to Obama is racist."

My reply was, "Of course! After all, conservatives supported government health care, nationalizing the auto industry, and huge energy taxes on ratepayers and industry when we had a white president, didn't we?"

It was a fun hour, and at the end we parted as close as ever. My friend is a Wiccan priest, and one of his closest friends is a Pentecostal minister. Sometime I want to listen in on one of their debates.

Gordon, did you all happen to discuss the bail out of Wall Street? That is something both parties shared in...or maybe our first attempt at nationalized healthcare, which was the prescription drug program from Bush, didn't see anyone out on the street over that one...

Of course the Iraq war could be viewed as nothing more than an ENERGY TAX...since Alan Greenspan says it was all about Oil I guess sending the troops in was kind of like pre drilling prep work....

Come to think about it Obama doesn't look as black as he did before becoming president.....

We did, TAO. One of the things we agreed on was that there seemed to be a revolving door between the Fed, the Treasury department and Goldman Sachs. We also agreed that the bailout team of either Bush or Obama was interchangeable.

As you (should) know, conservatives weren't thrilled about Medicare Part D. We figured it was part of the long-term strategy for the Republicans to hold on to Congress. If so, it didn't work.

Conservatives don't consider either of the Presidents Bush to be conservatives. We supported them because of their strong positions on national defense. I do wish we had pushed harder for fiscal discipline; it still might not have happened, but we should have.

Gordon; Great reply to those who think that opposition to left-wing policies = racism.

Those who make this false charge should remember that the people opposed to such policies were opposed to them when they were pushed by candidate John Kerry, candidate Al Gore, and president Bill Clinton. The opposition really has nothing to do with race.

Those who claim that opposition to Obama = racism are merely playing the race card in the worst way. Crying wolf, and triviliazing actual racism.
